Chapter 2: Hermione of the Ocean
I've been here in LA for a week and it's okay. I don't like not being able to use my magic and everything, but I love the ocean. It's beautiful and it's calling me for some reason. It's almost like something about it is calling me to it. I can't figure out why.
At the time, I had known about mermaids, but I had no clue that they existed in America and in the ocean to boot! I found that out the hard way.
One afternoon, I was to be found wandering around the beach along the rocks watching the waves. "It's so beautiful." I said to myself.
"It is isn't it?" another voice asked behind me. It was a female voice. "The ocean's gorgeous, right.?"
I turned around to see a beautiful girl with black hair and green eyes wearing a metallic swimsuit sunning herself nearby.
"Oh, I didn't see you." I said. " I'm Hermione."
"I'm Diane." The girl said. "I live around here. I just love the water."
"Yeah, I like it too." I said to Diane. "It's alluring."
"Then that means that you want to be like me." Diane said, jumping off the rocks and into the water. She resurfaced with a splash and raised the lower half of her body out of the water. She had a gold tail. That's right, a TAIL! "A mermaid!" She cried with a smile.
"You're a mermaid?" I asked her.
"Yes." She said. "Just like you're a witch from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Britain."
"How did you know that?" I asked.
"I've heard about you." She said. "You're a student there. I sensed your aura. And I can also sense that you want to join me. Would you like that?" She reached out her hand.
I nodded and took her outstretched hand.
The next thing I knew, I was pulled into the ocean and I had a tail. A beautiful shiny green one. I resurfaced next to Diane, feeling wonderful.
"Wow!" I said. "This feels wonderful. I don't think that I'll ever want to be a human again."
Diane giggled. "We can change from human to mermaid at will. It's fun."
"It will be, once my husband to be finds out." I said. "Come on, Diane. Let's go."
